This weeks releases is who else but mark kermode . Mark, what have you got for us this week . A very interesting week. We have paddington 2 which you cannot have missed the adverts for. We have the florida project, a new film by sean baker. And professor marston and the wonder women. So paddington 2, what a Great British cast. The first paddington was really lovely and charming. It really surprised everybody. Is there any possibility that paddington 2 could live up to it . I went in thinking it cant. It does. It is lovely and charming. The story is paddington wants to buy a present for his great aunt lucys birthday. There is a pop up book of london but it is really expensive and he cannot afford it. The book goes missing and the finger or paw of suspicion points at paddington. Next thing is he is wrongly behind bars. Heres a clip. In the past month these three shadowy individuals have all been seen snooping around three london landmarks. We think the thief you saw is part of a criminal gang, using the pop up book as a treasure map. Well, its a theory. Have you found out who they are . Not yet. Maybe i should have a look. Im sorry, this is a private conversation. Its all right, mr brown. This is my friend, knuckles. And this is fibs, spoon, jimmy the snitch, t bone, the professor, squeaky pete, double bass bob, mad dog, johnny cashpoint, sirjeffrey wilcox. I hope i can rely on your vote. And charlie rumble. Its so wonderful to meet you all. Its a relief that paddington has made such sweet friends. Would you excuse us for a moment. What are you doing . Talking to the nice men. Nice men . We cannot trust these people. Look at them, talk about a rogues gallery, hideous. As for that bearded baboon, he hasnt got two brain cells to rub together. We can still hear you, mr brown. That was the light you turned off. The microphone is on the other side. Its got microphone written on it. You laughed at least four times in that clip because its funny before we went on air you said is itjust a family film, in a way that sort of implied that just a family film was. The thing is, making a family film is really hard. It made me laugh and im 5a. It will delight the kids because the character of paddington is so beautifully realised. Ben whishaws voice is perfect. There is a mixture of childish and old beyond the years. There are lots of slapstick sequences. Paddington is trying to raise money for the book. He gets a job in a barber shop and it goes horribly wrong, involving an overhead fan. There are action sequences that are generally thrilling and seem to put paddington is in peril. You dont notice the interaction between the cg and the physical world. It was not until the end of the film where i thought they blended it really well. I never thought about paddington being a cg creation. I think making a really good family film is really hard and i thought this was really charming. The fact it was the second one, i expected the law of diminishing returns to kick him, it didnt. The bit where you see the different characters coming in, i think it is really, really funny. I think you would really like it. I suppose what i meant was its a film you would take the kids to but if you arent taking the kids . Go on your own. The radio five show that i do with simon mayo, we had so many people writing in for the first film saying, i dont have kids, but i want to go and see paddington. Is it fine . Yes, believe me, the cinema will be full of adults going. It is what a family film used to be. It is for all ages and i think anyone with a heart and soul can enjoy it. Looking forward to it. The florida project, rather different. Tipped for oscars . I loved this. The name comes from the name that walt disney developed his community of tomorrow in florida, which then became walt disney world. It is a community of People Living in more rundown motels beyond the boundary of the theme park. The motels are called things like the magic castle, but they are essentially rundown hotels where people live on the poverty line. All the purple paint in the world cannot hide the fact they are living in the red. The central character is 6 year old moony who runs riot around the hotel while her mother struggles to make ends meet, much to the disdain of bobby, the hotel manager, played by willem dafoe. This film portrays a harsh world of economic reality but you see it from the kids eyes. Sean bakers previous film, tangerine dream was shot on an iphone. It was shot on a combination of digital and 35 mil. It looks beautiful because we see the wonder that the kids see. You see the strange buildings, the orange of orange world, the strange wizard of the souvenir shop. Also the weird break out bits of grass and trees and cows which you dont expect right next to the concrete jungle. You get right into the lives of these people. Baker described it as a modern day our gang. Its the idea that the kids are living in poverty in hard circumstances but youre seeing the world through their eyes. There is hardship. There are real tears in this but, as a portrayal of an innocent view of the world, thats also very streetwise and sassy, it is terrific. He never feels like a tourist in this environment. I thought it was touching and moving. It will move you to tears. It will make you laugh. Starts with celebration by kool and the gang. That kind of tells you. It is also an ironic use of that phrase, the florida project, which is about the community of tomorrow. Well, this is a community of today. It has its feet on the ground, but its head in the air. Film three is really intriguing, professor marston and the wonder women. It is all about the creator of the comic book character wonder woman. We already have the wonder woman movie, which was a record breaking hit, directed by pattyjenkins. Now writer and director Angela Robinson goes back to the creation of the character. We have the professor of the title played by luke evans. We have his smarter, sharper wife brilliantly played by rebecca hall and bella heathcotes olive byrne. Between them they invent the lie detector, they start a nonconformist family unit and they come up with the strange comic book character who will go on to make millions. Here is a look. A comic book . This is perfect. I will inject my ideas right into the thumping heart of america. Ill get a real artist to draw it properly. Shes an amazon princess who lives on an island of all women . Paradise island. And a man crashes onto the island. Yes, the spy. And she wears a burlesque outfit. Its athletic. And silver bracelets. They deflect bullets. What . We love you so much but nobody, and i say this with all the compassionate truth in my heart, nobody will ever publish this. The story flips backwards and forwards. It starts with the Child Association of americas investigation into this comic strip. They say this is full of spanking, and sex perversions, and bondage. Explain yourself. The rest of the film is explaining it it looks back at where this character came from, about the alternative family unit, about the way these people become involved in role playing and s m. He is a psychologist who thinks everything comes down to disc theory. Dominance, inducement, submission, compliance. The women take him with a pinch of salt. They think hes only partly serious. But it becomes a portrait of tolerance in intolerant times. At one point rebecca halls character says we cannot be in love because the world wont let us. He says, we have to be what we want to be. It is a film about alternative lifestyles. Tolerance, it is funny and charming. I didnt know any of this stuff at all. It makes a very interesting double bill with wonder woman, who has become such a Huge Box Office success. I thought it was really well done and i really enjoyed it. It has been a really good week, you can tell. It is, you love everything. Best out at the moment . Killing of a sacred deer. This is the Yorgos Lanthimos film and she is very hard to describe. It starts out as a jet black comedy and then turns really sinister. Takes a greek tale of revenge and take it forward from ancient greece to the 21st Century Cinema screens. It starts, in that Yorgos Lanthimos way, being strange and off kilter and then it moves into horror film territory. I have to say, it is not for everyone. It is a marmite film. If you lose patience with it, you will lose it big time. I really liked it. I felt really u nco mforta ble all the way through. I couldnt quite the measure of it. And like mother, i thought it was really well done. It has haunted me and stayed with me. 0k you are not convinced . I dont think you have convinced anyone with that best dvd . Sorcerer. A0 years ago this film tanked. This is a remake of wages of fear. It came back to cinemas and is still playing in some cinemas in the uk. It is an extraordinary movie. It is gruelling, muscular, visceral, really tense. It is a story about trucks filled with very volatile nitroglycerin being driven across treacherous terrain. It has a celebrated rope bridge sequence. It is one of the tensest things ive ever seen. It has a score by tangerine dream. A0 years ago it opened head to head with star wars and star wars won. People wanted to see light sabres and rocket ships and all that stuff. This was a really tough movie. A0 years later it is recognised as the masterpiece it always was. It is a work of art. I guarantee you, you will be gripped from beginning to end. You had me at a score by tangerine dream thank you very much. Once an old prog, always an old prog. Mark, thank you very much.
